bpo-38270: Check for hash digest algorithms and avoid MD5 (GH-16382)
Make it easier to run and test Python on systems with restrict crypto policies:
* add requires_hashdigest to test.support to check if a hash digest algorithm is available and working
* avoid MD5 in test_hmac
* replace MD5 with SHA256 in test_tarfile
* mark network tests that require MD5 for MD5-based digest auth or CRAM-MD5
